'Casino Royale' appears a triumph

Ok here we go again with our new guy.

Everybody brought their own style to the role.

Connery got out because he didn't want to get type-cast.
Lazenby felt the heat from Connery fans and didn't want to do it again.
Moore felt like the role needed some comedy with advice from Spencer Tracy.
Dalton wanted it more serious. (I still remember the Charlie's Angel episode that had Dalton as the villian described of having James Bond type of style)
Brosnan - eh

The feeling I'm getting in my surroundings is that no one is interested. It has me worried, and the fact that this is James Bond's beginning to become a Double-O agent, should make Bond fans disheartened when they see Judi Dench reprising the role as "M"

you missed one, I'm ashamed to know you
